Singapura:
You should try the Malysian or Singapore forums lah. Liaoh bro, use many more Singlish, can? It took me quite a while to learn to read this. Some boards expressly forbid the use of local or non grammatical sentences.

It's been a part of the vernacular for roughly two decades now...get over it, there's far worse things to be concerned with. If the overuse of the word "like" is a major cause for concern in your life, then you've got it pretty good.

yep. i guess i do (",) . singapura would know the other extreme. i think it's still illegal to chew gum in singapore  :o

"I may not agree with you saying 'like' with every second word, but i'll defend to the death vaccuous peoples right to annoy me with it"

Singapura:
It is indeed illegal to chew gum here. Once a month I do a "gum run" over the border to buy chewing gum in Malaysia. My wife is addicted to it  8)

NightGod:
What possible reason would there be for outlawing chewing gum? The only possible reason I can think of would be issues with people dropping the gum on the street and making a mess, but seems a bit extreme to actually outlaw it because of that-I'd assume the penalty for it would be about the same as littering?

Singapura:
Things are a bit more extreme here. What I can do in Amsterdam very legally will get me executed here  :police: On the other hand, there is virtually no crime even though there are almost no police officers on the streets.

Sorry, this is hi-jacking the thread, back to topic...
